Several issues with. No hot water, no place to put toiletries. Just a few basic TV stations, nothing good for a traveler. The worst was the incessant banging noise til 1am , near a club. Couldn't sleep. Breakfast was bland, reminded me of school cafeteria food.

room was alright, but AC was very, very noisy, to the point we had to turn it off at night. I mentioned to the staff upon check out. Breakfast was minimal, but I guess it is what you get for $$

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The rooms were very dirty. The bathrooms were unclean, and the beds had visible stains on them. We were moved to a second room, but it was just as dirty as the first. The towels and rags looked old and dingy. On top of that, the manager was rude and unprofessional. Because of this experience, I will never stay here again.
